don't think that zener is 1.8v...might be 3.3v

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

found triples but the smallest is 3.3v

Thanks bud. Yeah another thing tho... and this would be BIG help.. if anyone knew where to find the parts placement diagrams on this SA-520, that would be GREAT. Maddening having to trace out solder traces and compare with the skeezer to figure out what's what.

I'll probably pull the trigger this weekend tho. Just contemplating on which set of outputs to go for, and a meter reading here.. another there... taking my time.

diode has to heav a 1n#, get the magnafier!!!LOL

The STV3H has not been subbed to date. Nothing else has the Tempcocurve that it has. Echowars at AK is getting close though.

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

are you looking for the trace with component placement?

Parts location diagram. Got the schematic, but it helps to be able to picture where the parts are physically.

What up Johnny D!!!!!

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

Those STV diode stacks were very unreliable, and were prone to failing open circuit,
more modern amps do away with the STV-3 diode stack and the other diode and resistor, and replace it with an adjustable bias circuit like the one shown below. the transistor should be mounted on the heat sink between the output transistors, and also coupled to the heatsink with thermal grease.[attachment=0:5d986g8k]vbe-mult.jpg[/attachment:5d986g8k]

Nothing much comin off nights and can't freakin sleep!!!!

No additional voltage feed, just what it gets from the drivers??

Happens to me too, 'cept it's just late nights.

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

The reliability factor had a lot to do with the application. My spec 2's have 2 of each, the STV3 and STV4's. Have to be careful when handling them to not break the leads, but very little drift over 36 years.

just gonna have to make ur own stack jer...
Yeh Lee these night suck, but not back on days and have to be at work at 5am..ugh!

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

Gotta run Angie callin...Yeh baby!!! .....try get tha diagram jer
See ya's tomorrow after work...

Didn't I post the schematic?

Re: Pioneer SA-520 hums The Electric Company vs Sound Of Sil

It isn't a schematic. We called it a hook up list. Gives you PN and location.
